title: Acquired pure red-cell aplasia associated with an increase of T cells bearing receptors for the Fc of IgG.
abstract: A case of steroid-resistant acquired pure red-cell aplasia associated with a relative and absolute increase of TG cells is described. Removal of T cells enhanced erythroid colony and burst formation in vitro, and it is suggested that TG cells may be implicated in the pathogenesis of this case of acquired pure red-cell aplasia.
